Wise, a biodiversity data manager, will show examples of records for rare plants found in the Gorge, and will discuss how citizen scientists can help maintain and update this important resource. Wise is also data manager for Oregon iMapInvasives, an online invasive species mapping platform accessible to all. She holds a master's degree in ecology from the University of Aberdeen, Scotland, and a bachelor's degree in biology from the University of Puget Sound.
The meeting will be held in Room 1.366 at CGCC, The Dalles campus.
